Pros

Work life balance is respected. Some very talented people. Good benefits. Compensation is generous for certain roles. In their niche SAS have the best technology available.

Cons

Strange cult like management structure. Company is run by dictates coming from the very top. Career advancement is limited unless you are in the secret circle. Remote employees are second class citizens. Company focuses too much on home state. Benefits have been eroding year on year. Too much unnecessary travel by managers to pad their awards accounts. We think we have to write everything ourselves. R&D over engineers technology.

Pros

Great co-workers and healthy environment. Benefits are amazing. Demands are reasonable.

Cons

I think this is true for many places right now but post-COVID campus has become mostly remote work. You have to organize with your team when you want to have face-to-face interactions.

Pros

Benefits: health coverage, on-site gym, childcare, healthcare center, and more. Work-life balance: predictable hours, flexibility for parents and a culture that doesn't expect you to grind 60-hour weeks.

Cons

Compensation lags the market, slow career advancement and promotions can take years. Change-resistant culture and new ideas move slowly. Leadership team manages up to just one person.
